This chemical is widely used in the field of bioconjugation and drug delivery due to its ability to act as a linker or spacer molecule. Its structure allows for the connection of different molecules, enhancing solubility and stability in biological systems. It is particularly valuable in the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), where it helps in attaching cytotoxic drugs to antibodies, ensuring targeted delivery to cancer cells. Additionally, it is employed in peptide synthesis to improve the pharmacokinetic properties of therapeutic peptides. Its hydrophilic nature also makes it useful in modifying surfaces for biomedical applications, such as creating biocompatible coatings for implants or nanoparticles.
